Milan (pronounced "MY-lun") is the epitome of small town America. Tucked into Ripley County west of Lawrenceburg, Milan showcases rural living at its best. With a population of about 1200, tiny Milan is mainly a bedroom community for Batesville and Cincinnati workers. With its slower pace and focus on country living, you'll have a chance to know everyone in town.

Summary

Named for the city in Italy, the city's name came from German settlers who focused on grape culture and processing of wine. Today a small winery still operates south of town. During the 1800's the village grew and was referred to as a substantial business center and an active Underground Railway Station of Antebellum days. Milan was also on the route followed by Gen. John Hunt Morgan and his Confederate Cavalry in 1863. Downtown Milan isn't much more than a crossroads now, with little more than memories of its famous spot in sports history. The high school's championship-winning basketball team of 1954 inspired the 1986 movie, "Hoosiers". You will find more than just memorabilia of the 1954 State Basketball Championship at the Milan Museum. A display showcases the areas history about a farm community developing from the early 1800's through 1954 and on into today.
